  My friend Tracy got this at Trader Joes, for $8. I am absolutely blown away. Seriously delicious, with cellaring capacity and yummy flavors. Opaque, purple, inky. The nose is exactly what I expect from a 7 year old Bordeaux- some cassis, cedar, earth, game and black plum. Tertiary flavors are coming out whilst primal fruit is still very fresh. The palate is silky with nicely integrated tannins, a touch of acidity and layered fruit. A medium length finish makes for a delicious, tidy package of rich fruit and good structure. Yummy stuff to drink till 2025. 91 points! Yup, for $8 at TJ's, this is probably my bottle of the year when it comes to QPR (quality price ratio). 5 stars, only cause I can't go 6. WAY TO GO!

  First taste was a surprise for being full bodied....then tasted a few times more. Tasted artificial. Grapey, no character. Just fine for yellowtail crowd if needed....
